Re: Introduction of WebI2C and WebGPIO

Thanks for clearly reflecting my opinion, Michael.
Sorry for causing misunderstanding because of my bad english, everyone.

I2C and GPIO APIs are for embedded devices such as CHIRIMEN, RPi, etc.
I think that proposing these APIs is not a kind of things to be denied in the context of WoT.
These APIs are just interfaces which are kicked by JavaScript locally in a device.

Cheers,
Futomi

A developer writes html with embedded javascript and local GPIO and I2C javascript libraries in order to program hardware sensors and actuators which are directly connected to the board’s I/O pins.

I guess you write the code using your favorite web design tool and then download it to the board, where it executes and blinks the LED.
